I opened this thread praying I wouldn't see someone say The Great Gatsby. I get irrationally angry when I see the remake on my HBO guide. It was so terrible, and why they made a 3D version I'll never understand.


As to the original question, I enjoyed the True grit remake better than the original mainly for the subtle humor of the Coen brothers. I often times found myself the only one in the theater laughing. Both versions are great though.

Same. I watched it at the theater with my family, and they looked over at me a couple times when I was cracking up (and everyone else was quiet).

The remake is good. It's just too similar to the original for me to say it's better.
